"AGRISENSO Plus reflects LANDBANK's commitment to providing holistic and meaningful support to the entire agriculture sector. Through strategic collaborations with public and private partners, we are complementing accessible credit with insurance benefits, capacity-building and other interventions to boost productivity, enhance income, drive sustainable growth, and contribute to national food security," said LANDBANK President and CEO Lynette V. Ortiz. The AGRISENSO Plus Program launch brought together key government partners, including Presidential Adviser for Poverty Alleviation Secretary Lorenzo “Larry” G. Gadon, DA Undersecretary Asis G. Perez, DAR OIC-Director III Sieramon A. Lacambra, Agricultural Credit Policy Council (ACPC) Deputy Executive Director Cristina G. Lopez, and local government officials of the Province of Pampanga.
